How to detect Mac spy software for Mac

Hey, guys. I am new here.
How can I make sure if my MacBook is free from mac spy software?
I think my sister may have put a mac keylogger on my computer, but before I start stressing out I want to get the facts.

I caught her viewing this Mac Keylogger page, but I guess she wouldn't have purchased one, so it would have to be possible to download for free, and I am unclear or not as to wether she has the administrators password. Could she have put a mac keylogger on my computer?

Step 1: Ask your sister as CLL said
Step 2: If she lies to you, strap her down to a chair and bring out the fingernail remover
Step 3: Explain to her how forgiving you are, and you'll give her 38 more chances to tell the truth.
Step 4: Ask the question again, and if she lies again use the fingernail remover to take off the nail on her left pinkie finger.
Step 4: Ask the question again, and if she lies again hammer 1 nail into the first joint on her left pinkie finger.
Step 5: Repeat the question 36 more times, and each time she lies, hammer 1 nail into each finger joint starting left going right and going from finger tip to knuckle. Remember when you start a new finger to take the nail off of it first.
Step 6: Do what you do to liars if she's still lying after that.

In case you don't have a fingernail remover (why don't you have one??? go get one now) use pliers although that's not as elegant.

All this to say I wouldn't worry about a family member trying to keylog you >.>

• Check the task list by press ctrl+alt+del in windows. Examine all the tasks running, if you unsure of a task look it up on a search engine.
• Use the system configuration utility to determine which task are loaded at start-up (type "msconfig" in the run box to start).
• Run your antivirus checker, it's possible this will pick up the Keylogger on your system.
• Scan your hard disk for the most recent files stored. Look at the contents of any files continually updating (these might be logs).
• Download a specific keylogger detector program, and see if it detects anything.
• Run Spybot S&D, this program checks for some known keyloggers.
